Although I wouldn't have otherwise I was actually close to buying this anyway and I'd probably have ended up paying around the same price so I might get one.

 

[Jango]

is a kimchi collection that what i hope it is, a seperate lineup with native korean movies? if so, i'm the happiest man alive

 

[ausnew]

I'm really not sure about this one

Seems to cheapen the whole concept to me

 

[rodtp]

I love kimchi to bits but this is what I call milking the collectors. I will pass ...

 

[max steelbook]

This is called cash-in!!! Stick a lenticular slipcase on it and it will sell!!!
Not a good move...smelling the exploitation already.

 

[ocielz]

Pass for me, I have the original release. Money will go to other Real Exclusives.

 

[MK50]

I think with the "added" goodies AND a lenticular Slipcover at least they offer good value for the Money...
And of course they had o find a way to sell the remaining quantities!
I love their lenticuar Slipcovers so far, so i think i will order one

BUT, i also do not want every old SB now with an added lenti... So also two-minded about that!

 

[Jb162009]

This looks nice. It may be an old steelbook with new extras but that is ok with me. Hopefully Kimichi do a few more of these collection. Imagine if they did Battle Royale or oldboy steelbooks but with extras & lenticular slip

Also, Choi any news on what language will included on discs? I see US amary release contains English audio but our uk amaray doesn't

 

[Lutzo]

Well,..

I love me a kimchi exclusive as much as the next guy, but this is just plain ridiculous!

This steelbook has been around for ages, available, unrare, ok, but not really interesting or collectible (not a very good movie in my view also), but now to just try and finally get rid of the unsellable remaining stock by adding some goodies to it is just a joke. They are obviously (and mostly correctly so) assuming that people will want a complete kimchi exclusive collection and will just buy anything.

Well, if it does, prepare yourself for:

Infestation and Far Cry Steelbooks, formerly DE bargain bin exclusives, now kimchi exclusive with a free sticker.

I haven't quoted Morrissey in a while, but here you go:

Re-issue! Re-package! Re-package!
Re-evaluate the songs [films]
Double-pack with a photograph [Lenticular]
Extra track (and a tacky badge) [postcard]

 

[DJHilalo]

Love this movie and the steelbook (the slip on this steelbook is just AMAZING) BUT this is plain wrong, no need to go that route guys, if it's a one-off thing then I'll let it go but plz do not make a new 'so-called collection' out of it UNLESS you have plans to follow it up with Korean ONLY steelbook releases then count me in.

The original release dropped so much in value. Have seen dozens of copies sell for under $15 in eBay.

No thanks to this release.

 

[metal hunter]

Don't know, what is wrong about offering this steel with a lenticular slip. Nobody is forced to buy it and everybody who did not purchase the steel thus far may bite now. But that's just my two cents...


Best wishes,

It's not about this steelbook only, it's the fear that they will keep on doing it over & over again for any unsold stock titles in the future

 

[Ranavalone]

Looks like a great release to me, and with a very reasonable price to boot.

I have the original with the transparent sleeve, so I don't have to get this. I still might, but that would be my choice - nobody seems to force me to buy this

Welcome, KimchiDVD Collection!

 

[HUBMUSWELL]

I'm guessing it's the same left over steel but now going to be repackaged?

 

[lgans316]

The same old dirty trick to boost sales.

 

[earthscope]

This shouldn't be any part of a kimchi exclusive. This is just wrong IMO. I already have the steelbook from 2 years ago. Now they are just going to take the same steelbook that rots on the shelf and add stuff and call it exclusive? Pass.

This is a huge step backwards in the kimchi exclusive line if you ask me.

BS. Its called "trying to clear out stock collecting dust on the shelves"

All this does is open up another can of worms. Its not good for the collecting environment. Its already crowded.

Totally agree! What is the point of this except trying to clear out dead stock by adding a slip and some art cards.....Not what I expect from Kimchi.
